The fight to install Windows Vista continues

Posted on: February 23, 2009 Categories: Computers

6 months ago I posted a half rant/half truce with Windows Vista. I’d bought Windows Vista Ultimate thinking great, going to install Window Vista on my desktop experience Aero on my new 27″ screen but sadly it didn’t install. Infact the install itself just up and crashed every time and just kept hanging on the same spot. I’d checked my hardware and they we’re all Vista compatible, so I was a little baffled.

Thats a quote that my life resolves around alot. Last night I was working on my IT Coursework on Task 3 of the coursework booklet. The task is to create a quotation system in Microsoft Excel for a carpet company called DM carpets, after you have created the quotation system with all of the relative formulae and formulas you then have to screenshot each part of the quotation system and show evidence of how It works.

The almighty PC returns!

Well seems lame, but this because of my main PC being out of action after the power supply (The PSU) got fried, in some bizare and random way, but today I got it replaced and it’s good to be seeing Windows XP again! Any updates that I’ve previously posted have been on a laptop (Which has a cracked screen so I have been using my PC monitor externally to be able to half use it) so with this half functioning laptop I have only basically been able to post updates and thats about it. Well finally the main PC is back!

A somewhat annoying delay

Posted on: November 25, 2008 Categories: Blog Updates, Computers

This week hasn’t started off that well, I’m not one to complain but this week everything technology wise everything has just seemed to completely collapse. The main issue that’s occurred is the loss of my PC. For whatever reason, the PC now has no power running through it, something inside has broke (most likely the PSU) as right now I’m currently typing on Laptop. Which is great fun when you’re used to typing on a nice big keyboard.
